Following a first album devoted to Mozart and Stravinsky, Esther Hoppe and Alasdair Beatson have again combined Mozart and the 20th century, this time with Poulenc and four works of Parisian inspiration. In 1763, Mozart’s family had a grand first visit to Paris: received by Louis XV on several occasions, young Wolfgang dazzled the king and the whole of his court. In 1778 Mozart returned to Paris with his mother; now 22 years old, the young man tried to be introduced to the court again, but the young prodigy had grown and was ignored by the nobility. Living in precarious conditions, lacking money and suffering from hunger, his mother died at the Rue du Sentier 6. It was in these tragic circumstances that Mozart composed one of those rare sonatas in a minor scale (K. 304). Dedicated to the Spanish poet Lorca, Poulenc’s Sonata is also marked by tragedy, as Ginette Neveu, who had first performed the work in 1943, was killed in a plane crash.
